If they're going to tax driving miles, those funds should be solely for maintenance of road infrastructure, though; city/state-based mass transit could perhaps benefit as well, both with increased ridership (people don't want another tax burden) and some financial benefit from the tax itself. What I wouldn't want to see is that mileage tax going into, say, a new stadium project. But when have we ever enjoyed having a direct say in the employment of our taxes?

That's rich! O'Malley will raid it like a beer store on Superbowl day! You know as will as I the money would be funneled to some crap in the State of Confusion (Maryland).
So, $1.85/mile at my 100 miles/week at 52 weeks per year is $9250.00 in mile tax. Why not just put a gun to my head and pull my wallet out? No, wait, they already do that!
